O-MaSS
In addition to SLR technology, Tandberg
is also developing a new product based on
a technology it calls
O-MaSS. This new technology uses a matrix
array write head, which Tandberg has been
developing for
seven years, that enables writing much-denser
data and recording 32 tracks at a time.
It uses an optical
servo system and an optical read head. The
intent is to use standard media that is
available today that will
be housed in a half-inch cartridge similar
to that of LTO and DLT. But the tape will
be shorter and wider
with a width of 2.5 to 3 inches. It uses
a center-park, dual-reel design to provide
fast access times, and
the tape reels are oriented horizontally
inside the cartridge. It is also unique
in that the tape never leaves
the cartridge and the recording head goes
inside the cartridge during a read or write
operation.
With expected introduction in 4Q03, a first-generation
implementation is projected to store up
to 600GB of
uncompressed data on a single O-MaSS data
cartridge at data transfer rates up to 64
MB/sec. O-MaSS
pricing is expected to be comparable to
LTO Ultrium and Super DLTtape at product
introduction. The
company also claims that the O-MaSS technology
could be used by other tape technologies
to boost their
capacity and performance beyond those shown
on their current road maps.
